IBM – Food Truck

For years now, IBM has been working to create a self-thinking computer that learns instead of being programmed. With the Food Truck the company found a way to show its innovation to a large audience. In this mobile kitchen computers select the recipes, while chefs of flesh and blood turn them into completely original recipes like a Swiss-Thai asparagus quiche. Great to see how technological power can boost human creativity.
